I've been thinking about trading in my 3DS for a while, but it wouldn't be for a Vita, as I had a Vita pre-ordered but then cancelled it. Main thing keeping me from trading in my 3DS is that I plan to get the inevitable redesign and am unsure how I'd go about saving all my stuff. Is it as simple as copying my SD card onto my computer?
That must be that it is alive (got Vita)? =)Sure are a lot of Vita threads lately.
Resell value is what matters. If you're not gonna use it or if you want a possible revision, you get what you can get considering a new 3DS goes for $170This is stupid, specially if you bought a 3DS at full price, it will just mean you bought a VERY expensive Vita.
Launch 3DS= $250
Vita= $250
trade-in value of $100
Total money spent = $400 and just one handheld in your hands, moronic any way you put it.
Oh my god i think i see some unique original opportunities for some comedy regarding vita doom in here!
$100 for a 3DS doesnt sound like a lot of money.

Hah! If only Nintendo made it that simple.
Games are tied to handhelds/consoles, not accounts.

I bet you have an app that alerts you to threads where someone might be saying something bad about the Vita.
Its not that great a deal at all. Hell I got 100 for my DSi when the 3DS came out and that was at least a last gen handheld for a new gen not a current gen for another current gen.
I figure the it is the most you will get considering the imminent 3DS redesign will all make us buy another one...
You can get one brand new for 150-170 dollars. What you got for a previous handheld at a previous time is irrelevant to the current value of a 3DS.
I guess maybe that they pay after how much they can resell it for. When the 3DS came out, wasnt the DSi still quite popular? And how much did a new DSi cost at that time?Its not that great a deal at all.

Yeah, i saw on Ebay that a new 3DS was around $150, so on second though i guess that $100 for a used one isnt that bad. I first had the MSRP in mind, $179.99.That is what I got at EB games.

Except it is that simple...You can transfer your entire system, download history included, to an SD card...
Ok then lets go this angle.
Its a crappy deal because the Vita has the exact same problem everyone who cried about getting a 3DS early had. Nothing in the immediate future worth a damn.
Of course with the 3DS we already knew what the future had coming while with Vita we know nothing. That said I have been considering getting one but there is no way I would abandon my 3DS to get a Vita considering current and future line up potential.

Dat resell value.
Why not just wait a few months until Vita is 149.99?
You can't just insert that SD card into any 3DS and have them work. They are tied to your 3DS system.

I'm going to be honest here. Right now, the Vita itself doesn't excite me. What does, however, is the fact that I'm going to be able to play a lot of amazing PSP games that will look better than the originals.
Same story with the 3DS and DS games. I bet a lot of people missed out on some good old DS games. Even if the Vita never comes out with more than 3-4 games that I'm "day one" for (Gravity Rush, Tales of Innocence R, and Ragnarok Oddysey at the moment), I'll be happy, because I'm going to have an amazing backlog that will provide hundreds, if not thousands of hours of entertainment.
I am dead serious when I say I am buying a Vita for PSP games, so I'm happy as a peach. Can't wait until Wednesday.
I understand this. Still, if you are giving a 3DS for trade-in for anything, not just a vita, then you did something very wrong by buying it in the first place, the thing is barely a year old and it was damn expensive at launch.
using the deal in the OP It's just paying more for being stupid for buying something you shouldnt have but did, maybe because of hype or something.
you are better off giving it as a present to someone, cause presents also cost money. Give it to your nephews and you just spare some bucks by not buying a present for them and giving them 3DS instead.
I understand, i agree with that. I just mean that if they could sell a used DSi for more than $100 when the 3DS came out, it would make sense to pay $100. And if that was trade-in value, then they also got to sell a 3DSDSi was 169 so yeah the price range is the same to arrive at $100. I just put alot more value into the 3DS as its not a dead system being replaced like the DSi was.

I'll buy a Vita when they have that lime green one and not a day sooner!

I don't want to be one of those people who quotes someone and just says LOL, but dude. Come on.

This. I have neither handheld, but this is just stupid.This is stupid, specially if you bought a 3DS at full price, it will just mean you bought a VERY expensive Vita.

god, you're as bad as gravijah.

It's too bad the deal wasn't Japanese so he couldn't offer a creative translation.
Personally, IF I bought a launch 3DS and IF I was going to buy a Vita I would wait until a much wanted 3DS revision comes to turn it in. I'm sure I could get some kind of enjoymeny out of it waiting for the revision.
But, I bet the resell value would be closer to 80$ if that.
No matter what... resell value is resell value.
Getting 20-60$ more doesn't mean shit.
Get over it.
Xbox Vitadid someone say lime green vita
You could get more on eBay, Craiglist, or whatever else. I don't understand why people are so willing to toss shit for dirt low prices for a trade in and let them turn around and sell it for much more. A little effort and you could get a good $30 more for it off of an auction site.
